Mazda RX-8 R3 Edition UK Pricing Announced

On sale across the UK from late August, the new RX-8 R3 Edition will be priced at £24,995 (€31,300 or $49,700). The R3 features a Sports Styling Pack that comprises a sport front bumper, side skirts and rear wing, lower gearing, new Recaro sports seats and 19-inch alloy wheels. Moreover the R3 promises to offer better steering feel and driving stability thanks to the revised steering and Bilstein sports suspension that gets new damper, spring, suspension bush and stabiliser settings. The multi-link rear suspension geometry has also been fine tuned for increased stability.
